Your crazy idea is basically what all those NOPI wackos with their front wheel drive drag cars do. The front still steers but they very much tune the hook-up of the cars with changes in how the ridiculously long wheelie bar flexes, rebounds on its shock, etc.
Those SOBs stole my idea!!
But
I want to see a top fuel dragster. From what you're telling me they'd have to be REALLY long. Cool...
and the dirt clods in my beer!
At the 76 Winternationals there was this big mud bog nehind the stands. Well sure enough a bunch of yahoos started 4 wheeling through it. The crowd, including myself, jumping in to push the stuck ones out. What a blast. For a while there I think more people were watching that than the race. But naturally it had to end. There was this little knoll in the center and two guys coming from opposite directions around it met head on. Nobody hurt, until the brawl started. Right in the middle of the bog. I just watched that part. Talk about LAUGH!!
